Update your Administrative Contact’s email address at your current registrar. We will be contacting the Administrative Contact’s email address for transfer approval. The transfer will only be initiated upon approval from your Administrative Contact. Once initiated, a transfer will be accepted or denied by the losing registrar within five (5) days.

2.B. Failed or Rejected Transfer Requests

The Company may elect to accept or reject your domain name transfer application for any reason at its sole discretion. Rejections may include, but are not limited to:

  1. The current Registrar rejected the transfer;

Upon successful transfer, you shall remain the registrant of the domain name and the Company shall become the registrar of record. Your registration will be automatically extended by one (1) year when available by the domain name registry (please see the product disclaimers located on this Site for any applicable exceptions). Domain name registration transfers may only be initiated once acceptance of this Agreement is recorded, payment is made and the Administrative contact has responded positively to our email message asking for Permission to Transfer. The email message asking for Permission to Transfer will be sent to the Domain Name(s) Administrative Contact as identified in the previous Registrar’s WHO-IS database. You agree to retain a copy for your own records of the receipt for purchase of your domain name. The Administrative Contact will be acting on behalf of the Registrant and has legal authority to initiate this transfer request. You are responsible for updating the Administrative Contact’s email as identified in the previous Registrar’s WHO-IS database.

2.D. Transfers of Recently Renewed Domain Names

You understand that if you are transferring a domain name that has been recently renewed, there is the potential the renewal year will be lost. The renewal year will be lost if: (i) the domain name was renewed during the forty-five (45) day grace period after the expiration date had passed; and (ii) forty-five (45) days have not yet passed since that expiration date. You understand and agree that the Company is not responsible for this lost year and that the Company will not credit that year to your domain. You will need to review the registration agreement you have with your previous registrar to determine if you are due a refund or credit for the lost year. Please contact your previous registrar if you have any questions about the lost year. You understand and agree that the Company will not intervene in the recovery of any such lost registration years that occur during the transfer of your domain name.

2.E. Data for Domain Transfer

You understand this is a request for a domain name transfer of registrars. By acceptance of this Agreement, you are requesting the domain name registration be transferred from the current registrar to the Company. As the current authorized Registrant of the domain name(s), you agree to authorize this transfer by notifying your Administrative contact of his/her responsibilities with respect to this transfer. You acknowledge that you and the Company have entered into a Domain Name Registration Agreement. You have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by the agreements that govern all domain names registered through the Company as found on the legal agreements page, including the Domain Name Registration Agreement; the ICANN Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy; this Agreement; any Company’s policies and procedures that are or may be published from time to time by the Company, ICANN, and/or the Registry Administrator chosen by ICANN.
